Burnalde inspected the position and troops in tho afternoon, aatd a general ac tivity indicated that soother battle waa Immi nenl- Burgeons were ordered to be in read neae to oare for large number of additional wounded. The withdrawal of our fonts was, aowerer, determined on at a oounoii of all tbi Corps Commanders during Ibe day. The no- dorlaking wae rrcaided as neriloue; but.

The troohs bad receiver! no InLlmallon of Ihe retreat aud had laid down on tbeir aims for the oight, when the order wae given lo ' fall in." The Hoots supposed it was for a nia-ht efsault oo Ihe ruemy's works, and were not uudeoeived umil they found themselves on the pontoons o.-csliig ibe stream. The bridges were coveied with earth to dead-o the sound of be artillery. A high wind and darkness Die. rented Ihe rebels from hearing or seeing the moremeut. Frankliu's division moved as soon as it was dark; also Bumner'a aud Hooket'e, irnui unaer ine very guns ol tne enemy.. Many officers and soldiers ercfleed great regret, saying they prefwrMi r-a '" ". Ibovabat k.ncnes. Very few wounded were left on the field. Two brigades still occupy tbe town as ad vanced pickets, and our artillery on the higher bank will co-operate In keeping possession ol the town. Our heavy guns opened on the rebel batter ies Tuesday morning, eliciting but little response. Strength of Rebel Work. The Times correspondence thus describes Ibe rebel position our forces were eipcolod lo etorm and toko : There's a bare plateau, of a third of a mile, wbloli a storming parly will have lo arose in doing so, Ihey will be exposed to tbe fire, Brut, of the enemy's sharp shooters pos'ed behind a stone wall. Running along Ihe base of Ihe ridge is a double runes of rifle pits, on the rise of tbe crest are heavy batteries behind strong Held works, Ibut stud tbe top of Ihe hill (a powerful infantry force is now lying oouoealed behind those) of a plunging lire from batteries on the lower range, and of a double enHlading fire from oannon to the left of them.

In a half an hour prodigous volleys of musketry announoed thai Hooker with Ihe reserves is engaged.

A foraging par ty, scut out from Vorktown laBt Friday, re turned this morning, with large droves of cattle, sheep, and swine, having been very suc cessful. The Richmond Examiner, of Dec. 10, says: Yesterday detectives Belted and detained a large lot of goods, valued at one thousand dollars. The goods bad entered Richmond, via Petersburg, fiom Norfolk, and were owned by Thomas rrailh, a dry goods merchant of Noi-folk. Bmith was placed under arrest for diso-bcdleuce of orders In forwardlug goods to Richmond. He gave bail. A lot of cotton goods and other articles of prime necessity, was soiled at the same lime, belonging to the same lot. The advance of tbe enemy on both sides of Abbieville, made it neocseary for Pember-ton to withdraw hil whole foroe to Grenada, to prevent the enemy from gaining his fitnk aud rear.

Seoretary.Soward, in ooe of hit last published notes to Minister Adams, initructt the latter to olaim damages and reparation of the English Government for tbe vessels burnt and Amerioan seamen imprisoned by the privateer Alabama. Tho case, as stated by Mr. Adams, it a very strong one against Ibe English Guv ernment, end in ordinary timet would have led to Immediato war if tbe olaim for indemnity were denied Under proaeut oircuru-etanoes it of course will be denied, but with even iudifforent diplomacy tho matter might oe bo mauBgcu aa to ten against ureal Britaio. & clear is Iho case that even Ihe Canada pa pers iiol'e ngaiust England.

DjmaglBg Dlacloiurea t Gen. UeDowell eootiuued his testimony before the Porter Court martial Saturday. Hie testimony is ooesidered more damaging to Geo Porter than anything whlob haa yet developed iuelf. MoDowell tesiiflee that oa the morning of tbe mih ha waa marohlot bit norps fn Manassas lo Gainesville. Porter was ahead of him, when they readied Bethlehem Churoh, where the road forked. Porter's oorpe aad one brigade of McDowell's paased oa towards the Warreoton Turnpike. MoDowell rode to Ibe front of Porter's oorpe, aad saw a ooluma of dual rising ahead tome few miles distant, and our skirmishers exchanging thott with rebel pickets walla they were oomlog up this road Porter esld to MoDoeell, "ion rank ma and must takt oommand." The joint order, direol. log them to move in the enemy s rear, bad been reoeived, and Porler laid lo MeDowell, "Wt osnnot go any further without geltiog into a tght." "MoDowell replied, "Wall, that 'i what wa oame hers for." After talking tht matter over, ne ordered rorter to go la at once, while ht went up the 8udley Spring road to join Ibe main body of tbe army. Hi then left him, rode baok, put hit troops on tbi road, watched until the moat of them had gone oa, and then rode to the head of hit own oorps. Oa bit way hi mot the aide, with Ihe order of Pops, dated 4:30 P. u., lot rorter to attack on tbeir right flank and rear at once. Thli was in effeot (hi earns order he had giien Porter before ht bad left him, and he tupposed Porter would proofed to eieoute li at onoe. ihis order of rone I wal to ust artil lary. U From what you knew of the country. could Porter have executed thi or del? A. -If he bad attempted to have txeonted it. even without artillery, and had beta deflated, II would have required so muoh foroe from the enemy's front aa to have relieved Pope, when ine main attack was going on, ana which would bare been a deolded advantage to tbi Union foroes. McDowell after leaving Porler, marobed fighting an hour before Ihe battle ended. Rebel Prlaonerg What Tbey Bar. A oorrstpondent of the Philadelphia Ioqui rer, writing from Frederioksburg, lays: During the paat two days we have, from time to time, been puKmg up prisoners, until now we bare accumulated something over three hun dred. Ooe hundred and seven of them were, to-day, sent down in oharge of a guard to Aquin, and from there will be sent to Fortress Munroe. Judging from their oonversation, hey are willing prisoners. All were thinly olad, but by the oourlesy of our oommanders they were each provided with a blanket, a luxury wnicn tney tnemseires stated to us they bad not enjoyed for a twelve month. They tell ut that though having plenty of good and suostantiai rood, an are as poorly olad as themselves, and that their sufferings, during the intense oold weather of the early part of the week, were of a character that would diminish their number more than a dozen battles.They slate to us that tbo present position of their army has nothing like Ihe strength in umbers or situation that we are led to believe it is. They say that from tbeir right, which it un der Gen. LoDgstreot, and back from Frederioks burg at least four miles, down through their centre, under Jackson, who is at Deep Run, to their left, under Hill, wbioh it resting at Mas-sapouax River, that Ihey have not seventy thousand elleolive men. io use the terms ol some two or three of them, Ihe Conjcicracy ii played ottL Uue of tbe latter, with apparent frankness aud considerable earnestness, remarked that if our Government would promise not lo deal harshly with their trting leaders in tho future, that all would return lo their allegiauoe wilhin Ihe next thirty days, r rom those same parties wo learned that those of their troops who bad been for the Hret Ihree days in and about the immediate vicinity of Fredericksburg were but a small brigade of Mississippi troops under command of Gen Barksdale. A Sad Romance. A few years ago the marriage of Miss Boker, young, beautiful and accomplshed lady, with bar fathers coachman, John Dean, set all tbe soandal mongers of Gotban on end. A tad addendum to Ibe "strange eventful history" bas now to be added, After tbe marriage the oou-ple, notwithstanding their different "bringing up," lived happily enough together, in a email ootlage over in Williamsburg. The husband obtained an oftioe in Ihe Custom House, and saved mouey enough to open a publio house at Ihe foot of Grand street, Williamsburg. But else! for John Dean, he oould not keep a hotel. It is said "he was his own best ouslomer," and as natural lesult be oommenoed treating bil wife badly. In a abort while all their money was spent, and, with povgrly coming in at tbe door, love, as usual, flew out of Ibe window. John beat and abused bis wife, but all thie the put up with, until starvation stared her in tbe faoe, when she was oompelled to ask admission into the Almshouse. The petition wae granted, and the fashionable, elegant and aocomplishsd belle of Ihe Fifth avenue a few years ago it now the associate of beggars and paupers. "A tea ! the love of woman It Is known To 04 a lovely aud a feerfol thing, rr all of tbrlr'aupjn that die Ie thrown And if 'tis lost, life hatb no more to bring To them, but mocketlea of Ihe Taat, alone." Tbe Situation. Wabhirotoh, Dec. 161 A M. The most in tense excitement has prevailed here through the entire day with regard td the situation at Frederioksburg. The brief offioial bulletins only serving to whet the publio appetite. In tbe orowde at the hotels and other publio plaoes, Senators and Congressmen jostli against tbt humbler masses. After a oarejful survey of Ihe whole lubjeot. and a thorough oanvast of facte and Ibe opinions of those who were pretent, and who are arriving hero to night, wo believe that the en gagement of yesterday was Indecisive as to results, but by no means the vague dleatttr whion leveral nervous correspondents desdribe It. Tbt nist duty that General Uurnside found before him waa that of feeling thi enemy's works, in order to ascertain their strength and the disposition of his forces This oould not hs done by a eoouting party, but required a force nearly equal to our whole strength. The atrong natural position or the enemy It in hll favor, bo far si lo prevent tbe reoonnois-sance from turning out a successful storming of his foritnoaiions ending in a route or a surren der. Our men behaved splendidly, surpassing in Iheir desperate assaults the reoorda of any nrevious engagement, ana giving tne lie to tbe statements that tbey oould be influenced by personal pique or affeollon towards any leader. The summing up shows a heavy lost on our side, which must be nearly equalled by that of the enemy, wno was proteotea ny nis entrenon-ments. But hit turn will thortly oome. Our Generals' now know enough to save their men needless exposure, and to make tvtry dash tell. Tht soldiers art in eager fury to advanoe, but assured of viotory. It would be Improper to speak of details of movements that an in nroiress. in which bravery will bt aided bv strategy, but you may feel assured that while in previous battles we got all our good newt urst. ws now navt wnai may teem discount;. lng tidings lo be oertainly followed by a glorious and overwhelming victory. Tho Preal-dent, Bcoretary Btanten and General Halleok are oalm and oonfident, and while they deolort the Iobb of life, they look upon our final tuooiii as certain. The N. Y.

DjmaglBg Dlacloiurea t Gen. UeDowell eootiuued his testimony before the Porter Court martial Saturday. Hie testimony is ooesidered more damaging to Geo Porter than anything whlob haa yet developed iuelf. MoDowell tesiiflee that oa the morning of tbe mih ha waa marohlot bit norps fn Manassas lo Gainesville. Porter was ahead of him, when they readied Bethlehem Churoh, where the road forked. Porter's oorpe aad one brigade of McDowell's paased oa towards the Warreoton Turnpike. MoDowell rode to Ibe front of Porter's oorpe, aad saw a ooluma of dual rising ahead tome few miles distant, and our skirmishers exchanging thott with rebel pickets walla they were oomlog up this road Porter esld to MoDoeell, "ion rank ma and must takt oommand." The joint order, direol. log them to move in the enemy s rear, bad been reoeived, and Porler laid lo MeDowell, "Wt osnnot go any further without geltiog into a tght." "MoDowell replied, "Wall, that 'i what wa oame hers for." After talking tht matter over, ne ordered rorter to go la at once, while ht went up the 8udley Spring road to join Ibe main body of tbe army. Hi then left him, rode baok, put hit troops on tbi road, watched until the moat of them had gone oa, and then rode to the head of hit own oorps. Oa bit way hi mot the aide, with Ihe order of Pops, dated 4:30 P. u., lot rorter to attack on tbeir right flank and rear at once. Thli was in effeot (hi earns order he had giien Porter before ht bad left him, and he tupposed Porter would proofed to eieoute li at onoe. ihis order of rone I wal to ust artil lary. U From what you knew of the country. could Porter have executed thi or del? A. -If he bad attempted to have txeonted it. even without artillery, and had beta deflated, II would have required so muoh foroe from the enemy's front aa to have relieved Pope, when ine main attack was going on, ana which would bare been a deolded advantage to tbi Union foroes. McDowell after leaving Porler, marobed fighting an hour before Ihe battle ended. Rebel Prlaonerg What Tbey Bar. A oorrstpondent of the Philadelphia Ioqui rer, writing from Frederioksburg, lays: During the paat two days we have, from time to time, been puKmg up prisoners, until now we bare accumulated something over three hun dred. Ooe hundred and seven of them were, to-day, sent down in oharge of a guard to Aquin, and from there will be sent to Fortress Munroe. Judging from their oonversation, hey are willing prisoners. All were thinly olad, but by the oourlesy of our oommanders they were each provided with a blanket, a luxury wnicn tney tnemseires stated to us they bad not enjoyed for a twelve month. They tell ut that though having plenty of good and suostantiai rood, an are as poorly olad as themselves, and that their sufferings, during the intense oold weather of the early part of the week, were of a character that would diminish their number more than a dozen battles.They slate to us that tbo present position of their army has nothing like Ihe strength in umbers or situation that we are led to believe it is. They say that from tbeir right, which it un der Gen. LoDgstreot, and back from Frederioks burg at least four miles, down through their centre, under Jackson, who is at Deep Run, to their left, under Hill, wbioh it resting at Mas-sapouax River, that Ihey have not seventy thousand elleolive men. io use the terms ol some two or three of them, Ihe Conjcicracy ii played ottL Uue of tbe latter, with apparent frankness aud considerable earnestness, remarked that if our Government would promise not lo deal harshly with their trting leaders in tho future, that all would return lo their allegiauoe wilhin Ihe next thirty days, r rom those same parties wo learned that those of their troops who bad been for the Hret Ihree days in and about the immediate vicinity of Fredericksburg were but a small brigade of Mississippi troops under command of Gen Barksdale. A Sad Romance. A few years ago the marriage of Miss Boker, young, beautiful and accomplshed lady, with bar fathers coachman, John Dean, set all tbe soandal mongers of Gotban on end. A tad addendum to Ibe "strange eventful history" bas now to be added, After tbe marriage the oou-ple, notwithstanding their different "bringing up," lived happily enough together, in a email ootlage over in Williamsburg. The husband obtained an oftioe in Ihe Custom House, and saved mouey enough to open a publio house at Ihe foot of Grand street, Williamsburg. But else! for John Dean, he oould not keep a hotel. It is said "he was his own best ouslomer," and as natural lesult be oommenoed treating bil wife badly. In a abort while all their money was spent, and, with povgrly coming in at tbe door, love, as usual, flew out of Ibe window. John beat and abused bis wife, but all thie the put up with, until starvation stared her in tbe faoe, when she was oompelled to ask admission into the Almshouse. The petition wae granted, and the fashionable, elegant and aocomplishsd belle of Ihe Fifth avenue a few years ago it now the associate of beggars and paupers. "A tea ! the love of woman It Is known To 04 a lovely aud a feerfol thing, rr all of tbrlr'aupjn that die Ie thrown And if 'tis lost, life hatb no more to bring To them, but mocketlea of Ihe Taat, alone." Tbe Situation. Wabhirotoh, Dec. 161 A M. The most in tense excitement has prevailed here through the entire day with regard td the situation at Frederioksburg. The brief offioial bulletins only serving to whet the publio appetite. In tbe orowde at the hotels and other publio plaoes, Senators and Congressmen jostli against tbt humbler masses. After a oarejful survey of Ihe whole lubjeot. and a thorough oanvast of facte and Ibe opinions of those who were pretent, and who are arriving hero to night, wo believe that the en gagement of yesterday was Indecisive as to results, but by no means the vague dleatttr whion leveral nervous correspondents desdribe It. Tbt nist duty that General Uurnside found before him waa that of feeling thi enemy's works, in order to ascertain their strength and the disposition of his forces This oould not hs done by a eoouting party, but required a force nearly equal to our whole strength. The atrong natural position or the enemy It in hll favor, bo far si lo prevent tbe reoonnois-sance from turning out a successful storming of his foritnoaiions ending in a route or a surren der. Our men behaved splendidly, surpassing in Iheir desperate assaults the reoorda of any nrevious engagement, ana giving tne lie to tbe statements that tbey oould be influenced by personal pique or affeollon towards any leader. The summing up shows a heavy lost on our side, which must be nearly equalled by that of the enemy, wno was proteotea ny nis entrenon-ments. But hit turn will thortly oome. Our Generals' now know enough to save their men needless exposure, and to make tvtry dash tell. Tht soldiers art in eager fury to advanoe, but assured of viotory. It would be Improper to speak of details of movements that an in nroiress. in which bravery will bt aided bv strategy, but you may feel assured that while in previous battles we got all our good newt urst. ws now navt wnai may teem discount;. lng tidings lo be oertainly followed by a glorious and overwhelming victory.
